Many well-stocked nurseries, such as Roger's Gardens in Corona del Mar, California (949/640-5800), and Swansons Nursery in Seattle (206/782-2543) also sell garden art and furnishings.

Newly opened at Paradise Valley Marketplace in Phoenix is Poppybox Gardens (602/569-2087), a garden store and nursery. "We embrace gardening from a design sensibility," says Poppybox president Allison O'Connor. "Our look is contemporary." Designer containers are a specialty here. Poppybox also has two locations in Oregon―Portland (503/280-1228) and Tigard (503/968-8804).
